These four com panies are the Southern PubHc Utilities ompany of Charlotte (Duke Power Company), the Tidewater Pow er Company. Wilmington; Durham Public Service Company, and the Car olina Power and Light Company. Most of the cities and towns In the State are served by these four com panies. More than six weeks ago the Cor poration Com mission announced It was going to seek to bring about a reduction in utility rates In the State by seeking to get the various utility companies to agree to rata redudtlons )ln Informal conferences (nstaad of through formal proceedings.

It was prepared by Dr. C. E Waddoli, rate expert of the commission, and the following statement on it was given out: “The chart is read thus: Take, for emunlple. a consumer who uses 60 kw hrs per month, look at the diagonal line marked 60 and follow it downward ’o its intersection with the first rate line (in this instance the Carolina Power and Light Company) the bill , would bo $5.00 as shown at the bot tom of the chart and the rate would be 8.3 c per kw-hr as read at the left of the chart. Continuing clown the 60 kw-hr line, the next rate crossed 1? the Tide W-ater Power Company's. The bill would be $4.90 and the rate 8.2 c per kw->hr. Continuing down the For if the Commission should issue an order to the utility corporations putting lower rates into effect, the! corporations could appeal to the I courts and forestall any lower | for months or even for several years, it was pointed out. But the commission would not give out any information as to what it was trying to get or how it was trying to get it. Circuitous statements were is sued from tiny? to time about the various confidential conferences held with power company representatives ‘hat meant little or nothing. The com mission first said it would be able to announce a reduction in rates of some companies by October 1. But October 1 came and there was no announcement. Both the public generally as well as the various cities and towns vitally interested in the rate reduction move "ccame restive. They did not like the ielay and the secrecy. Things looked iecidedly fishy to some of them. Some bluntly said that the Corpon ion Commission was evidently well named, irj that It seemed to be look ng out for ths corporations Instead >f for the people. The trouble was that Chairman W. T. Lee of the commission wanted to viat until after everything had been decided and settled before making iny announcements, while the other wo members. Commissioner George P. Pell and Stanley Winborne want ed to take the public into the confl lence of the emomission and let it know what the commission was try ing to do. Because Lee was the chair man of the commission, the other two members deferred to his wishes for a time. But the criticism finally be came so strong that Commissioner Pell and Winborne finally decided hey would vote to lay their cards on the table and take the public into their confidence. The result was the announcement of the four objectives, made public today for the first time, ‘ogether with some of the figures and other data developed by their rate ex pert. Dr. Charles E. Waddell. These figures show most of the rates charged in this State are higher than in other states. ——— ■— ■ » - » , .11 I. ■ r Killer-Bear and Child Victim f M■ i‘,v.

C. State Alumni Is Consid ered Significant Raleigh. Oct. 2l.—The recent action of the Harnett county University of North Carolina alumni chapter in fa voring the repeal of the Greater Uni versity consolidation act has excited a great deal of comment on th® State College campus and among Raleigh supporters of the college. Meeting on Founders’ Day to cele brate the 139 the anniversary of the founding of the State University, alumni of Dunn, Ullington, Erwin and Clinton voted almost unanimously to urge the 1933 legislature to repeal the act consolidating the three State in stitutions. One dissenting vote was re gistered on the resolution, according to press reports. This is indicative of a growing feel ing among the alumni and supporters of all three institutions that the pro gress of the consolidation so far leaves much to be desired in the way of actual accomplishment. Many ob servers seem to think that the only result of the consolidation has been a few inconsequential changes of cur ricula and the possible creation of several additional high-salaried aa ministr&tive jobs. There is also a growing feeling in Raleigh and on the State College ! campus that, in the event of the con tinued failure of the combined board of trustees and its executive commit tee to make some disposition of the engineering school problem, alumni organizations throughout the State should follow the lead of the Harnett group and call on the new General Assembly for the repeal of the entire consolidation act. GARDNER WILL GET INTO CAMPAIGN IN GOLDSBORO OCT. 26 (Oofunued from Page One.) press of hia duties, is planning to en ter the campaign October 28 and to make as many campaign speeches from then until November 8 as his duties will permit, he said today. In order to arrange to take part in the campaign, however, the gov ernor was forced to cancel his speak ing engagement tonight in New York City, where he was to have been the guest and principal speaker of the Society. In announcing his canoe na tion of this speaking engagement and his decision to enter the campaign. Governor Gardner said: “The press of my duties here, par ticularly those In connection with the distribution of nearly $1,000,000 in re lief funds over the State, and having to do with the fiscal problems of the State government, I have found it impossible to leave the State at this time, and have hence been forced to cancel the engagament to speak In New York tonight, as I had planned. For several weeks every available minute of any ttme has been con sumed either in conferences concern ing the relief program with the di rector of relief, Dr. Fred W. Mor rison, or in conference with State Treasurer John P. Stedman in work ing out the fiscal program for the rest of this year. “So far these matters demanding my immediate and constant attention have been so urgent that for the first time tn 20 years I have not been able to take any part in the present Demo cratic campaign. Howevevr. I am hop ing to have matters in hand within the next Yew days so that I will be able to fill a number of speaking en gagements beginning October 26 and continuing with as many as possible until the election November 8." It has been known here for several weeks that scores of requests have been pouring into Democratic head quarters here asking for speeches by Governor Gardner, and that Chairman J. Stanley Winborne, of the State Democratic Executive Committee, has been urging the governor to try to ar range to make some speeches. It Is also a fact that many of these re quests for speeches by Governor Gard ner have come from eastern counties that in the past have been considered as very strongly anti-Gardner, espe cially before the two Democratic pri maries this past summer. This is re garded at Democratic headquarters here as an indication of the present Democratic unity and solidarity, and that all pre-primary differences in Democratic ranks have been forgot ten. , "f: The largest number of requests for speakers continues, to be for the two leading Democratic candidates, how ever, and for other speakers in the following order: Robert R. Reynolds, candidate for senator, first; J. C. B. Ehringhaue, candidate for governor, second; Senator J. W. Bailey, third; Governor Gardner, fourth, and Clyde Hoey, fifth. Other'speakers in popular demand are Commissioner of Revenue A. J. Maxwell; Attorney General Den nis G. Brummitt; Walter Murphy of Salisbury; Felix Alley of Waynesvllle; R. Hall Johnston, of Asheville, and Rivers D. Johnson, of Warsaw. !
